    Any repco/bursons etc should have them on the shelf. Wont be too expensive. Easy as to change yourself.
    Just unplug the cable from it, unscrew it, put teflon tape on the thread on the new one and replace.
    Oil pressure switch is located right near your oil filter.

    Rocker cover gaskets are easy too, same place, wont be expensive
